 In most cases, you do not have to specify the `Content-Type` for each part.

+in the test's `ApplicationContext` with a Mockito _mock_ or _spy_, respectively. In the
+latter case, an early instance of the original bean is captured and wrapped by the spy.

-The annotations can be applied in the following ways.
+By default, the annotated field's type is used to search for candidate beans to override.
+If multiple candidates match, `@Qualifier` can be provided to narrow the candidate to
+override. Alternatively, a candidate whose bean name matches the name of the field will
+match.

-  type hierarchy above the test class.
-* At the type level on an enclosing class for a `@Nested` test class or on any class or

-  class.
+When using `@MockitoBean`, a new bean will be created if a corresponding bean does not
+exist. However, if you would like for the test to fail when a corresponding bean does not
+exist, you can set the `enforceOverride` attribute to `true` – for example,
+`@MockitoBean(enforceOverride = true)`.

-When `@MockitoBean` or `@MockitoSpyBean` is declared on a field, the bean to mock or spy
-is inferred from the type of the annotated field. If multiple candidates exist in the
-`ApplicationContext`, a `@Qualifier` annotation can be declared on the field to help
-disambiguate. In the absence of a `@Qualifier` annotation, the name of the annotated
-field will be used as a _fallback qualifier_. Alternatively, you can explicitly specify a
-bean name to mock or spy by setting the `value` or `name` attribute in the annotation.
-
-When `@MockitoBean` or `@MockitoSpyBean` is declared at the type level, the type of bean
-(or beans) to mock or spy must be supplied via the `types` attribute in the annotation –
-for example, `@MockitoBean(types = {OrderService.class, UserService.class})`. If multiple
-candidates exist in the `ApplicationContext`, you can explicitly specify a bean name to
-mock or spy by setting the `name` attribute. Note, however, that the `types` attribute
-must contain a single type if an explicit bean `name` is configured – for example,
-`@MockitoBean(name = "ps1", types = PrintingService.class)`.
-
-To support reuse of mock configuration, `@MockitoBean` and `@MockitoSpyBean` may be used
-as meta-annotations to create custom _composed annotations_ – for example, to define
-common mock or spy configuration in a single annotation that can be reused across a test
-suite. `@MockitoBean` and `@MockitoSpyBean` can also be used as repeatable annotations at
-the type level — for example, to mock or spy several beans by name.
